Have you been to Ravelry? I've been very organised today and listed 8 of my knitting projects on it and have now been able to throw out the pile of wool labels I was keeping in case I felt the need of the info. again! and while I was there I put some more pics on FlickR, so I'm feeling quite pleased with myself for finally getting around to it!

Decorating

We finished decorating our bedroom, after 3 trips to Ikea thanks to them being out of stock of doors, handles....Here's a pic of a corner of it, we have only done 1 wall of the wallpaper the other 3 we did in a green matched to the leaves in the paper, fab paper but would have been a bit too much all over, not to mention screamingly frustrating to do with such a big repeat as our house is old with wonky walls - the one wall we did with a slope at head height that moved as we got across the wall led to some screaming hissy fits on my part!  And isn't the green glass lamp cute for the bargain price of £3.99! Ikea may be a long trip too and annoying at times but so worth it for things like that.  And we finally have a 'wardrobe solution' that means all our clothes fit in one place not spread round the 2 spare rooms as well as our room! (the treasures we rediscovered when sorting it out were great!)

Hi all, if anyone there's still looking Warren's been moving my server (whatever that entails??) but normal service should be resumed fairly soon, not posting much now in case I can't work this new software version and it doesn't get uploaded!  But stand by for hopefully some lovely pics of our decorating (and a lot of Ikea flatpack!) Bob - who's feeling a whole lot better lately, Tiggy in a nice new collar, the latest knitting (on the sleeves though that always take ages due to my orangutan length arms) and hopefully some gardening action when the galeforce wind drops!
